The Unexpected Guest by Agatha Christie
Tuesday 6th November
Ticket Price: $25 (Concession $20)
Director: Norman Caddick |
A foggy night in a remote location, a mysterious intruder, an onstage body, and a glamorous woman
holding a gun: sustained intrigue and fluctuating suspicion in the Christie formula. And, inevitably, a
serpentine twist in the plot.
Michael Starkwedder enters the home of the Warwicks through a window in the study. He finds the dead
body of Richard Warwick, and Warwick's wife, Laura, holding the gun that supposedly killed him. Despite
the murder being obvious, and overwhelming evidence pointing towards it, Starkwedder does not believe
Laura killed her husband, and she soon tells him she's innocent.
Another Agatha Christie play for everyone who loves suspense and detective fiction. |
